Refuelling The Vehicle - Fiat Doblo Owner's Handbook Manual

❒ The performance of the parking
assistance system may also be
affected by the position of the
sensors. For example by a change in
the ride setting (caused by the wear
of the shock absorbers, suspension),
changing the tyres, overloading the
vehicle and carrying out specific
tuning operations that require the
vehicle to be lowered.
❒ Detection of obstacles in the upper
part of the vehicle (particularly in the
case of vans or chassis cabs) may
not be guaranteed because the
system detects obstacles that could
strike the lower part of the vehicle.
❒ The parking sensors work properly
with the swing doors closed.
❒ If they are open, they can cause the
system to send false signals: always
close the rear doors.
❒ Do not apply stickers to the sensors.

WARNING
97) The sensors must be clean of
mud, dirt, snow and ice in order
for the system to work. Be careful
not to scratch or damage the
sensors while cleaning them.
Avoid using dry, rough or hard
cloths. The sensors must be
washed using clean water, with
the addition of car shampoo if
necessary. When using special
washing equipment such as high
pressure jets or steam cleaning,
clean the sensors very quickly
keeping the jet more than 10 cm
away.
98) Parking manoeuvres, however,
are always the driver's
responsibility. While carrying out
these manoeuvres, always make
sure that no people (especially
children) or animals are in the
area concerned. The parking
sensor is designed to assist
drivers, who must still never allow
their attention to lapse during
potentially dangerous
manoeuvres even if performed at
low speed.
REFUELLING THE
VEHICLE
PETROL ENGINES
Only use unleaded petrol, with an
octane number (R.O.N.) not lower
than 95.
IMPORTANT An inefficient catalytic
converter leads to harmful exhaust
emissions, thus contributing to
air pollution.
IMPORTANT Never use leaded
petrol, even in small amounts or in
an emergency, as this would
damage the catalytic converter
beyond repair.
DIESEL ENGINES
Operation at low
temperatures
If the outside temperature is very
low, the diesel thickens due to the
formation of paraffin clots with
consequent defective operation of
the fuel supply system.
